Anybody more legit, I encourage everybody to do their own research. Criticize the government in a positive way, in a bad way, however you want, but you have to check up on them, even if it is once a year, everybody. Take one day, everybody, this year, and go and check up on your government.

All right, guys. I have Enrique from Auditing America here and JP from Liberty Lens Audits. And we're in Vegas. You guys end up getting arrested? Oh, man. Well, not this time. Not yet. Not this time. We got assaulted a couple of days ago by Juliana Miller from the UFC. We didn't even know who she was. So where were you guys and what happened? Well, we were conducting a First Amendment audit.

For those of you who don't know what a First Amendment audit is, that's what someone does when they want to investigate how good the service of the United States government employees is when it comes to respecting your freedom of the press, your First Amendment right to video record in public areas while exercising other constitutional rights such as the Fourth Amendment.

So we have the right to our privacy. We don't have to discuss our day unless we're suspected of committing crimes. We don't have to provide ID. So we showed up at the post office and we're doing our thing. And Juliana Miller happens to be in the line and automatically becomes what they call on the internet nowadays a Karen. She at first was cool with what we were doing.

She was aware of what we were doing. And then turns out making physical threats And then I made a comment that triggered her to follow me and, you know, assault me by, you know, striking my... Touching my face, head, hat, all flew off and everything. Sounded vicious to me. Damn. So... Then she follows by fleeing and jumping into uncommon traffic and jumping a whole wall. It was insane.

142.431 - 168.088 Host

I didn't see that part. Yes. You got to go check out the video, guys. All the way at the end, I was so surprised because obviously I didn't know she was an athlete. So... It wasn't common for me to see a 120-pound girl jump in a wall the way that she did. Now, what is your goal with these audits? Because we were talking off camera. You don't press charges. You've been arrested 10 times.

168.868 - 197.707 Host

We've pressed charges in the past in situations where, you know, we pretty much... Where we thought that that was the best thing to do. Yeah. But we've never really gone to court and completely prosecuted anybody or had anybody been convicted because of any videos that we're out there to do because we're not out there to get anybody in trouble. Our main goal during these audits is to...

199.189 - 225.701 Host

educate the people that don't know. I'm on a mission to educate the people from Puerto Rico as well. You know, we are a U.S. territory with over 3 million American citizens who a lot of them don't speak English. Our Spanish is our first language. And even though they enjoy the rights that we have over here as a U.S. territory, a lot of them really don't really get it, I guess.

226.121 - 247.885 Host

So I'm out there also doing videos in Puerto Rico and all US territories. We've been to the Northern Mariana Islands, Guam. I got detained in Guam in the Northern. At the Naval base. That sounds scary. It was pretty, it was pretty scary. They took me inside the base and everything. So are you allowed to film in the base?
